I have just tried again with the Rapture at Elgin, then moving to my selected position - 8 NM finale runway 22L EKCH. I am asked to adjust the throttle. I max to NTOP (90%). In the settup I have chosen to freeze my position after trimming but this never happens. Over the airport the attached snapshot shows 82% but this is a side effect of pausing the sim. The indicated descent is also a side effect and should show level at 2400 ft. The speed has increased to almost 126 kts but if I continue FSiPanel never accepts this even if I go past the airport and get to 128 kts.
I have not done videos before and must look into that if it is necessary.

I have been waiting for a response, J-P, and it would be good to know both good or bad news regarding my use of the Q400 with FSiPanel. I have been considering a reinstall of FSiPanel. Would this affect my credits? Is it necessary considering the fact that my PMDG NGXu works fine?

Later today:
I have reinstalled FSiPanel (V57) and installed both the NGXu and the Q400. The former works fine but not the latter. Please see the new video which you can access via the link shown in my previous message.

1: Your joystick has one axis assigned to slew mode, this should be removed as per FSiPanel user manual to help for the trimming phase.

2: FSiPanel asks you to adjust your thrust to reach Approach speed around 126 to 131 kts if I remember right.
Please try to reduce your thrust to 15% and wait until speed is within the window, the add thrust to maintain the target speed.
When FSiPanel will detect that your speed is correct, you will be positioned back to 8NM final for your approach.

Hi J-P,
1. I could not find any assigned axes (slew.jpg) but recalibrated my joystick and this seemed to correct the first problem.
2. I tried an approach. As soon as I am given control the speed drops off rapidly even if I have max throttle set to start with. I also tried
reducing the throttle to 15% and then up to max again. As you can see from the two snaps I did not manage
to reach 126kts before reaching the runway - the increase was very slow and continuing past the airport I was not able to surpass 123kts.
